Now first of all I will give you the qualifying of being a leftover is that you have established your name somewhere else and then go to a company at an older age. So guys like AJ Styles don't count becuase even though he was in WWE before he went to TNA, he really made his name in TNA. You also need to have wrestled in the last couple of months.

I'm going through both TNA's and WWE's rosters and decide who I consider leftovers. Let's start with WWE:

Big Show: Made his name in WCW even becoming WCW World Heavyweight Champion at his debutDaniel Bryan: Was a big star in the Indy's before coming to the WWEEvan Bourne: Same as BryanR-Truth: Although he started at the WWE as K-Kwik in 2001 or something like that, he made his name in TNA becoming a 2-time World Champion there.Rey Mysterio: Was one of the best cruiserweights in WCW winning the Cruiserweight Championship multiple timesWilliam Regal: Started as Steven Regal in WCW and winning their Television Championship multiple times

So that are 6 for the WWE now let's look at TNA:

Brian Kendrick: Although he never won a singles title in the WWE he did stay there for quite a long time and even got a WWE Championship MatchBully Ray: One of the best tag team wrestlers in history but was in ECW and the WWE for a long time before coming to TNAD'Angelo Dinero: Was in the WWE as Elijah Burke for quite sometimes. Spend some time in WWECW leading the New Breed and challenging for the WWECW ChampionshipDevon: Same story as Bully RayHulk Hogan: Biggest star in history but seriously needs to retire. Reason I included him is that he had a match at BFG and is rumoured to return to the ring again.Jackie Moore: Was in the WWE for a very long time becoming a Cruiserweight and multiple time Women's ChampionJeff Hardy: Same story as Bully Ray and Devon. Jeff Jarett: Multiple time WCW and IC Champion. Ofcourse the founder of TNA but the reason I put him in here is that he's still active in the ring.Kurt Angle: Olympic gold medalist, WWE, World Heavyweight and WCW Champion before he left for TNAMickie James: Started in the WWE with a great feud with Trish Stratus. Multiple time Women's Champion.Mr Anderson: Very charismatic guy. Went under the name Mr Kennedy in the WWE. Became a former US Champion and Mr MITBRic Flair: 16 time World Champ and although recently not active, whenever he's around he's in the ring.Rob Van Dam: Was a former WWE, WWECW, IC Champion in WWE and a Mr MITB. Also one of the greats in the original ECW.Scott Steiner: A former WCW Champion and had spend some time in the WWE before and after his run with WCWSting: Ofcourse one of the best in WCW. Multiple time WCW Champion.

So that's 15 for TNA. Let's look at the score: WWE: 6 TNA: 15. I think the numbers speak for themselves.

cm punk was an indie star,chris jericho was established in wcw. Booker is not on the list? Jim Ross also started in the nwa or wcw i forget sry. Also Mic Foley was established before he started in wwe (he is rumored to be coming back)

Technically every person on every roster is a leftover. Almost all wrestlers performed for smaller companies before being signed by WWE or TNA. I don't see why you made this. The leftover argument is one of the worst arguments in the IWC. As long as a wrestler can entertain you, why should you care about what company they came from.

thought I would help

So as I said only guys who've wrestled in recent memory. So no Booker, no Foley, np Jericho, no Ross, no Foley and no Lawler

I made this to end the discussion. And a leftover in my book is someone who establishes their name in a company, then get releaseed and go to another company. And I never said there's anything wrong with that. I'll make another blog on these guys
